No, no, you have completely misunderstood the whole point of this 
change.

The idea is for "func" to be called at a time when it is known that the 
device is at full power.  That means it _has_ to be called after the 
runtime_resume callback returns.

Also, "func" should not be stored in dev_pm_ops because it won't be a 
read-only value.
